I believe the poem goes as follows:
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers
How many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick?
That is to say, he picked a peck--but how many are in a peck?
The answer is ... well ... about 2 gallons...since peck is a measure of volume, that's the closest I can get...unless you can find out how much a US dry gallon weighs compared to how much a pickled pepper weighs...then go to the site below to do the conversions. :-)

the answer has always been zero. (0) you cant pick, pickled peppers. they dont come pickled. if they are pickled already...then they came from a jar.
